Lyne County Agent MNNHHHIHIIIIUlHniNlluMIIUIaMMMlU The Shenandoah Area Poultry Auction Inc. will hold its first auction of live poultry at 2.00 p. m. June 15 at thhe Golden Glow Restaurant Building on Gerrard Street in Winchester. I believe this is the first non-profit poultry auction set up in Virginia which should prove a good thing—-that is, jf it works like those in Pennsylvania which I understand have been quite successful. A letter from the manager advises approximately 10 to 20 buyers will be present and have been approved. Also he advises: “poultry will have to be listed at the Auction between Tuesday morning and Thursday evening of each week so the buyers will have time to inspect the poultry before “auction” day. Need a nice purebred Black Poland China gilt or boar? If so the following 4-H club boys will have litters ready to move by mid June: Eddie Sutphin, c/o Raymond Sutphin; Charles Leake, c/o Fred Dodson', and Ivory Atkins, c/o Ivory Atkins Sr., all of Flint Hill. These pigs originated from the J. B. Terrill estate herd of Poland China believed by many to be one of the top, if not top, herds of the in Virginia. Sears, Roebuck Foundation of Atlanta, Georgia started the project among Rappahannock 4-H’ers eight years ago and since that time production—bred boars have been used continuously that were out of large litters and of desirable meat type conformation. Farmers who in the past have purchased this blood have been exceptionally well pleased with the performance they have made in their breeding herds as well as their ability to hand up good carcasses with an ambulance of red meat. Last week Professor Teske of Blacksburg was in the county and promptly purchased a boar from Charles Leake to head his herd of fourteen brood sows. Also last week your county agent accompanied by the swine specialist of VPI, Ralph Westing, iourned to Farmville, N. C. where two young boars were purchased from the Joe and Chris Moye herd at $40 each. One of these boars will head the Greene County 4-H Cow - Chain while the other has been placed with Walter B. Kilby, son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Kilby of Woodville. The Rappahannock boar is a particularly outstanding individual and is the, son of the 1953 Junior Champion at the III. State Fair. I am indeed grateful for the cooperation Sears, Roebuck Foundation has given our 4-H bovs in this swine project for it has not only helped our young men" but has meant much to farmers as well, by improvement of their swine made possible by ready access to top quality breeding stock. As I told Mr. Teske we were glad to sell him a young boar but would have liked it better if this as well as all of the more desirable gilts.and boars would have been placed with Rappahannock Farmers. ' Maurice O’Bannon, who purchased several gilts last year has placed an order lor a boar from a 1955 spring litter. '’If you’ll drop by and see these pigs I believe you’ll want one or several and they are priced right.

h 5<; News Ammig Our -v ’• * m ; * The Washington Monarchs will meet the Fiont Royal Baseball Team in an exciting match on the Pine Knot diamond this Sunday j -—afternoon. -———Sv There will be eleven o'clock church services at First Baptist Church, Washington, this Sunday morning, June 20. At the dose of the State Convention of New Farmers of America, it was announced that the O. R. Johnson Chapter of the George Washington Carver Regional High School was again rated among the best in the State. We were rated fifth best among the 56 NFA Chapters that comprise Virginia. * The criteria used in evaluating * chapters were based on all of die activities and accomplishments on the local, federation, and state . 'levels. The activities were as follows: public speaking, talent, i quartette, quiz, Soil and Water, 7 management Awards, Farm and Home Improvements Awards, Farm Electrification Awards, i ’ ’ Dairy Farming Awards, Farm, Mechanics Awards, Modem Farmers, Superior Farmers, H. O, Sargent Winners, judging teams, |E= offices held, newspaper articles published, radio programs conducted, State and Camp dues, delegates attending NFA Convention, and NFA camp attendance. Of this number we have or will participate in all but five. When the State Convention convened on June 7, We were there with ten members from our chapter. This number represents the fourth largest of the 56 chapters present^ However, this quantity ^ wasn't taken for the sake of a ‘ large number, for each boyhad a, i specific duty to perform, The ten, boys were obliged to the following duties: Livestock judging team vf three, Forestry judging team of three, two delegates, one State Officer, and one alternate. Competing against boys with far more experience, we had to * struggle for the fifth position. However, the boys being keyed up with an' ardent spirit and a grim determination, we departed from the convention with a 4” by 6" silver plaque for having placed fifth in the State. Our forestry judging team, consisting of Leslie Daniels, Clyde , Duvall, a nd Thomas Carpenter won third , place and a 12” by 9” gold plaque in competition with thirty teams — throughout Virginia.* - Clyde Duvall received a gold f-_metal for having the second high* . eat individual score hi forestry among 90 boys. Our livestock judging team placed seventh among 38 teams. Thomas Carpenter, of Madison County, Won. the State Farm Mechanics Award ahd $35$ Clifton Hill Jr. won second place in Soil and Water Management and $15$ and Adel.—bert Triplett, of Culpeper coun- ... tf\ Thomas Carpenter, and Clifton Hill Jr. were elected to the Modem Farmer Degree* We are proud to be rated among the top nine chapters in the State, hut our hope and our plan is higher ground.

A ' considerable amount of this trash was removed from the 53 miles of primary highways of the county. ' - Oftentimes however, the 214 miles-~of ^ secondary roads received suf-, ficient rfeuse to give them that i "trashy” effect. Although many have discontinued the practice, some trash still finds its way into the streams to await a favorable rain to wash the wastes further 4 downstream. At periods of low r water, as was experienced this past s summer, persons passing by the Thornton River in Sperryville • may have experienced both an unv wholesome appearance as well as ■ odor. - Giles H* Miller,* Jr. District r Chairman of the Anti-Litterbug Campaign stated that it costs the state approximately $60,000 a year or more to pick up and dispose of the trash in the thirteen countries of the Culpeper Highway District, Rappahannock being one of the thirteen.^ f \ § ‘ r Prioress- has Men made by* *• various persons and groups in the county. 'One lady near Washington stated that litter was no problem to her. All food scraps were fed to the chickens, dogs, cats or hogs. All other refuse excluding cans, paper of all descriptions and like substances were hurried in the fields where soil erosion was evident. Even before such a campaign began the Rappahannock County High School burned the greater part of the school trash. The cans and other unburnable re- v fuse were disposed of, with permission of the owner, into ft ravine. In so far as possible all debris which would attract orr breed flies, rats, ect, was eliminated from die refuse being disposed of ' ‘ into the ravine. y; • Not afl citizens have incinerators for trash burning or ravines for unburnable trash. Even so, old barrels may be used as substitute incinerators. Some persons have advanced the idea of building a - stone, cement or cinderblock fireplace which could be utilized for an incinerator. Others thought of building a dual unit, one an incinerator and the other an outside fireplace, each utilizing the same flue. The disposal of unburnable materials may present a . problem. Several restaurant_ owners, service station owners and others with a great deal of this material have been granted per- * mission by county citizens to place such materials into, ravines and gulleys on their land. Since the county does not provide a suitable place for trash disposal, neighbors or other citizens may be r approached, for permission to fill their gulleys or ravines. With some difficulty trash and other refuse may he hurried. Those persons with tractors available may use them for an effective burying operation. The anti-Iitterbug campaign exists not only in die 13 county district of Virginia, but is nation- . wide as found in below furnished ^ by John Guenther of Keep America Beautiful, Inc (Keep America Beautiful, Im:. is a public service organization for the elimination of litter.)

i Washington I as viewed by YOUR SENATOR A. WILLIS ROBERTSON WARNING FROM HISTORY ON TRADE RESTRICTIONS f I ■U ■ Last Saturday, June 12, marked the expiration date of the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Acts which was an extension of the program proposed by Cordell Hull in 1934 as a means of combating a worldwide depressions' * \ ^ f • In his State of the Union message last January President) Eisenhower said: “The free world can no longer afford the kinds of arbitrary restraint on trade that have continued ever since the war.” He promised at that time to submit detailed recommendations after . the commission he had appointed to make a study of foreign trade problems had submitted its report. On March 30, after the Randall Commission had reported, the President recommended to Congress measures to expand import, and export trade and increase the flow of our.capital into foreign investments, including a three year extension of the Reciprocal Trade Act. He said then: “If we fail in our trade policy, we may fail in all. Our domestic employment, our standard of living, our security, land the solidarity of the free world all are involved.” A bill in line with the Presi- * dent’s trade program was intro- s - duced in the House of Representatives by Representative Kean of > New Jersey on April 15. •« When * certain Congressional leaders expressed unalterable opposition ta \ that bill, they induced the Presi- * dent to say that he would conar/tj promise 1 r a one year extension < of the present Act, which did not include the recommendations of the Randall Commission to authorize the President to go ~V further in reducing trade barriers than the present act permitted. So when the expiration date of the evisting trade act arrived, the Congress was offered no choice except to let the Act expire unnoticed or to hurriedly pass a bill to extend it for one year and it was stated in Senate debate that pressure had been brought on the President to agree that if the extension were approved he would not use the power given him to make any new agreements during the next year. This would, of course, make the extension an empty gesture. I had these facts in mind when, in my University of Virginia.. Commencement address on June ) 14, I recalled .the consequences of our failure to follow the leadership of Woodrow Wilson after World War I when he advocatedinternational cooperation to restore "relations of mutual_advantage” among nations. I pointed • out specifically that at a time when trade wars were bringing on a world-wide \ depression, the United 'States sought to isolate itself behind the highest tariff ip our history and thus set the stage for World War II. o n *set' ■ yt-;- >■ ‘ This is' a wanting from history which, in my opinion, we cannot— »afford to ignore at a time when economic cooperation among the i free nations is essential to prevent World War III. The nations which share our faith in democracy must have trade or ^ their industry, and agriculture, which we have spent $60 billion since World War II to rebuild, , will stagnate. If we do not make it possible for them to trade with \is, their only choice wUl be to * K <*■ f v-7,^^S'ijr trade with Russia and her satellites and the Soviet leaders have launched an all-out effort to capture thattride. Trade also t$ important to us because we are dependent to capture that trade; Trade also is. important to us because we are dependent on imports for many eccential defense materials. . . . To give just one illustration of what i« happening: Russia is having ships built in Italy and *pill W.sp- vti* use those ships for her expanded trade which will cut into ’ our world sales of such items as wheat, cotton, and tobacco, which already art declining. „ She is paying ior those ships by sending coal to Italy which the Italians are glad to get at a price, equivalent to $28 a tori. It was informed by .the research office* of the Bituminous coal industry tnat we could ship coal from Virginia to Italy and deliver it at a price of not more than $18 Lklf. 1% a ton. That is not being done, however, because the Italians do not have, dollars with which to pay for it^and meanwhile our coal, mines are; closing down and creating widening waves of economic distress * & • i r • «—"»«.t>j* i d : Sf * J..*' M->,' . - i.m., ■ -v* SINGER SEWING MACHINES for rent.1 $7.00 per month.
